HERZLIA, ISRAEL.:An Israeli fabless semiconductor company is
demonstrating high-definition, 3D video transmission over a wireless home
digital interface, or WHDI. Amimon Inc. is reported to be demonstrating a
prototype wireless system for transmitting 24 fps, HD, 3D, 1080p video over
WHDI in the 5 GHz band. Tech-On
says the Amimon intends to develop the system into adapters for wirelessly
connection 3D Blu-ray recorder/players with 3DTV sets. It’s said to transmit
data at up to 3 Gbps.

WHDI is similar to WiFi, which also uses 5 Ghz spectrum. The WHDI licensing
body announced the addition of 3D formats to its specification last month. The
updated spec--1.4a--is scheduled for a fourth-quarter, 2010 release. A 2.0
update, expected during the second quarter of next year, will accommodate
“mobile device integration through reduced power consumption and footprint,”
according to a release
from Amimon.Print Page
